As soon as Sengoku finished speaking, the muscles on Chaton's body, transformed into a Giant-toothed Poisonous Spiked Boar, bulged.
His already five-meter body grew even larger.
Then, he charged towards Gion like a broken bamboo.
Seeing this, Kizaru breathed a slight sigh of relief.
According to his understanding, Chaton and Gion were roughly equal in strength, at most a draw.
At worst, he could just think of other ways.
Gion looked down at Chaton charging towards her.
Her slender hand rested on the hilt of her sword, the Konpira.
"Chaton, if you lose to me today, you're forbidden from bothering me ever again!"
Gion said to Chaton in front of the Navy soldiers and high-ranking officers.
Chaton also smiled, but paired with his current pig head, he looked incredibly comical.
"I can promise you that, but if you lose, you have to accept my pursuit!"
"Disgusting!"
Gion didn't answer Chaton's question, simply stating her feelings.
Chaton was thick-skinned and didn't mind.
In his opinion, his strength was about the same as Gion's, at most a draw.
But!
Gion didn't think so.
She was far stronger than before.
Because, in the envelope Ryuya had left with her, it detailed the techniques for mastering Advanced Armament Haki!
Gion, who yearned for increased strength,
naturally accepted Ryuya's gift and joined his camp.
Because the techniques for Advanced Armament Haki alone were far more valuable than the resources the Dove Faction had invested in her from the beginning.
Sword!
Unsheathed!
The sound of the sword echoed in everyone's ears.
Advanced Armament Haki coated the Konpira,
making it several times more lethal!
The blade sliced through the air, as if cutting a beam of cold light.
The cold light flashed, carrying a chilling aura.
"Slash!"
As soon as Gion finished speaking, she unleashed a downward slash!
This slash, infused with the sword intent of an early Supreme-Grade Swordsman, combined with Advanced Armament Haki, accompanied by the ringing of the sword, pierced the hearts of the onlookers!
The moment the slash appeared before everyone, Chaton sensed the danger.
His Observation Haki sounded the alarm.
Warning Chaton of the danger of this slash!
"How is this possible! Such a fierce slash! This woman has become so much stronger in such a short time!"
Chaton's heart sank.
With that in mind, he roared, a piercing pig squeal echoing in everyone's ears.
His back quills stood on end, the poison on them making people shudder.
Chaton curled himself into a ball.
Spinning, he charged towards Gion.
"Boar King Charge!"
"It's here! Vice Admiral Chaton's Boar King Charge!"
"A skill that combines attack and defense!"
...
In an instant, the two collided!
Bang!!!
The deafening sound made everyone's hearts tremble.
The entire training ground's surface shattered, extending outwards continuously.
Seeing this, Aokiji, beside Sengoku, used Soru to reach the edge of the training ground, releasing his cold aura.
He froze the shattered ground outside the training ground, protecting the soldiers watching the competition.
Sword energy howled, dust filled the air!
Chaton gritted his teeth, covering his back with Armament Haki, minimizing the damage he received.
However, the difference in Armament Haki couldn't be bridged.
Sword energy continuously eroded Chaton's body.
Slowly cutting into Chaton's body.
Blood initially seeped out slowly, then the wounds grew larger, and finally spurted out, dyeing the ground red.
Gion's face was cold and frosty, like an ice beauty.
She sheathed her Konpira.
At this moment, the sword energy exploded.
Sending Chaton flying backward.
Everyone watching was stunned.
They couldn't believe what they were seeing.
They didn't expect Gion to be so powerful.
Both were Vice Admiral candidates, but Gion's strength had reached this level.
This was unexpected.
The dust settled.
Revealing Chaton's figure.
Although he had been injured, he recovered completely within seconds.
However, he looked rather disheveled.
Chaton's face was grim.
His mind raced, countless thoughts flashing through his head in a short moment.
After weighing his options, Chaton walked towards the crowd with a cold face, waving his hand, and said to Gion, "You win. I don't feel like fighting anymore!"
Hearing Chaton's words, Kizaru's face changed instantly.
Even the always-slacking Kizaru felt unwilling at this moment.
"That guy Chaton!"
Kizaru gritted his teeth, then disappeared into the crowd.
A seductive smile played on Gion's lips.
She slowly turned and walked towards Ryuya, whispering, "Please, give me more guidance in the future!"
"Hmm."
Ryuya nodded in response.
Sengoku announced the final result at this moment, "The winner of this competition is Ryuya and his subordinates!"
As soon as Sengoku finished speaking, the soldiers erupted.
"Admiral White Dove! Admiral White Dove!"
"Admiral White Dove! Admiral White Dove!"
"Admiral White Dove! Admiral White Dove!"
...
The soldiers, like Ryuya's devoted fans, frantically shouted his name.
The title of Admiral White Dove was once again imprinted in everyone's hearts.
Many people wanted to join Ryuya's camp at this moment.
Ryuya was well aware of their thoughts.
At this time, Ryuya said to Ain beside him, "Ain, we only recruit the strong. We don't need cannon fodder. After all, the sea is too dangerous for them."
"Yes, Ryuya-sama!"
The competition ended.
The soldiers dispersed.
At this moment, Ryuya also came to Sengoku's office.
As soon as he arrived, Ryuya saw Sengoku signing some documents.
As soon as Ryuya entered, he handed him the document.
"This is the ownership document for the Special Science Group. Take this document and go. They're currently conducting research at Punk Hazard."
[Ding, issuing a sign-in task: Punk Hazard, reward: Summoning Jutsu. Time: 3 days!]
Hearing the system's words, Ryuya's eyes lit up.
Without any hesitation, Ryuya took the document from Sengoku and said, "Fleet Admiral-sama, then I'll go report now."
Watching Ryuya leave, Sengoku's expression instantly turned gloomy...
